Bate
In the centre of the village, there is the parish church of St Cross. It is dedicated to the finding of the Holy Cross and the main celebration takes place there every year at Ascension of Jesus. Near the church, there is an old village graveyard, which has been renovated a few years ago. In this graveyard, Austrian soldiers from World War I are buried. Remains of Italian soldiers, who had also been buried there, were taken to Oslavje ossuary in 1935.
